Bifurcation analysis and chaos control in Zhou's dynamical system

Abstract

PurposeThe purpose of the study is to obtain explicit formulas to determine the stability of periodic solutions to the new system and study the extent of the stability of those periodic solutions and the direction of bifurcated periodic solutions. More than that, the authors did a numerical simulation to confirm the results that the authors obtained and presented through numerical analysis are the periodic and stable solutions and when the system returns again to the state of out of control.Design/methodology/approachThe authors studied local bifurcation and verified its occurrence after choosing the delay as a parameter of control in Zhou 2019’s dynamical system with delayed feedback control. The authors investigated the normal form theory and the center manifold theorem.FindingsThe occurrence of local Hopf bifurcations at the Zhou's system is verified. By using the normal form theory and the center manifold theorem, the authors obtain the explicit formulas for determining the stability and direction of bifurcated periodic solutions. The theoretical results obtained and the corresponding numerical simulations showed that the chaos phenomenon in the Zhou's system can be controlled using a method of time-delay auto-synchronization.Originality/valueAs the delay increases further, the numerical simulations show that the periodic solution disappears, and the chaos attractor appears again. The obtained results can also be applied to the control and anti-control of chaos phenomena of system (1). There are still abundant and complex dynamical behaviors, and the topological structure of the new system should be completely and thoroughly investigated and exploited.

About the MATLAB Measurement and Control Technology of Thermal Power Machinery

“…MATLAB software applies the M language and implements programs in the form of mathematical calculation symbols as well as formulas. Since it has the advantage of simplicity and efficiency compared to other development software, it has quickly become one of the most popular software in the field of scientific and engineering calculations as well as computer control [6]. After the development and expansion of this software in various professional fields, it has become more powerful graphical programming capabilities, which makes the application of MATLAB even more widespread.…”
